| OTL amps on Dynamic Speakers While I was not aware of the Jadis being an OTL, the Fournier is a wonderful sounding amp. Others that would do the job quite well are the Atma-sphere MA2's and the higher powered Joule Electra's.I drove the Wilson MAXX's (92db) quite well with bo... | |
| Best Patricia Barber's CD? Jeancarmet: I agree with you 100%. That is the exact order I would have put them in. | |
| What speaker to replace ESL 63? I would have agreed with you about the 63's with my last breath until hearing the P10's. I may have been a bit "exhuberant" in my "much better" statement, but they really are that good. The break-in period is a rough one and everything improves wi... | |
| Theta Miles VS Resolution Audio CD50 I highly recommend the Audio Aero Prima. At only $1700, it is a steal. It is wonderful sounding and, of course upsamples at 24 /192.Good Luck! | |
| Has anyone heard a Bel Canto SET40 with Quads 63s I personally like OTL's with the Quads. I have heard them with the Atma-sphere m60's and they sounded great. I have heard many SET's and I would strongly recommend picking up a new or used AS. Call Duke at Audio Kinesis, he will gladly take good c... | |
| Absolute Power Cord They are what they are... an excellent $50 power cord. Certainly they are better than the stock cords that are shipped with most equipment, but they are not the "Holy Grail".For lower priced power cables, I would recommend the Jena Labs Power Cabl... | |
| What is your vote for best bookshelf speaker ? Great list. My vote goes to the Sonus Faber Extrema, if you have enough power.You may also want to look at the Piega line if you do not have unlimited power. | |
| What speaker to replace ESL 63? Detlof: How broken-in were the P-10's you listened to? The Piega's I have did not become magical until about the 400th hour. They sounded real good out of the box, but improved by a wide margin with break-in.I do not own the Quad's, but listened t... | |
| Best 20A IEC power cord Shunyata or Jena Labs. | |
| Tenor Audio - Anyone hear them? kevinkwann@aol.com: The Tenors are wonderful amplifiers, period. When you buy a manufacturer's equipment, you too have a relationship with that manufacturer. Does that make your opinions less valuable? I recommend equipment other than what I own o... | |
| Best CD Player to drive a Power Amp direct? Sutts is absolutely correct, the Audio Aero is the way to go. | |
| Best speakers for 2000-USED Magnapan 3.6's | |
| What cd player or cd transport/dac is next for me? I have had the Levinson digital, the dCS delius and purcell and none come close to the Audiomeca or Audio Aero. Audiomeca makes the Enkianthus DAC and Mephisto II Transport and CD Player. Both pieces are incredibly easy to listen to and of course ... | |
| What speaker to replace ESL 63? Without a doubt the best speakers I can suggest to replace them with are the Piega P-10's. The have ribbon tweeter, a ribbon midrange and cone woofers. This is easily one of the most coherent speakers I have ever heard. It is much better than the ... | |
| Speaker positioning? Start by bringing the speakers about one third of the way into the room with your seating position about the same distance in as well. Move the speakers about 8 feet apart and adjust from there.What speakers and associated equipment do you have? W... |
